Four and half years later, Amy is still my go to masseuse. Damn, can she work the knots out. In…read morecase y'all haven't noticed, I can be a little type A and I hold a LOT of tension in my shoulders. Amy pounds (well y'know not literally) those knots into submission. She is thorough and you should prepare to feel like jelly when you leave her. Her prices are competitive and she occasionally runs a special where you can purchase a block of massages at once for a discounted price. So definitely get on her mailing list Seriously if I could give her 6 stars (because it's 1 more) I would.

Pura Vida IN DEED. Amy is the most gifted massage therapist EVER. I got my first massage from Amy…read morein Olympia, Washington around 7 years ago when my sciatica was at an all time high--or low, depending on how you look at it. Amy helped me immeasurably with deep tissue work and offered sage advice on stretches that I should try to prevent the problem in the future, and other stretches I could try for the times when it was flaring up. She's the complete wellness practitioner package: does amazing bodywork, is very knowledgeable about stretches and overall wellness, and she sets the vibe with amazing music--none of that overwhelmingly cheesy new-age-on-steroids flute business either (seriously folks, music like that should be reserved for that magical moment when Yanni decides to launch his unicorn humping porn career). I only have one complaint: Amy now lives in NOLA and I live in San Diego. It's just too inconvenient to fire up my private jet whenever I need a massage. (And by "private jet," I mean *Toyota*) Now I'm only left with the memory of my favorite MT. After massages I ask myself: HWAM? (How Would Amy Massage). And no...I'm not kidding. Friends hear me say things like, "I got a massage last Friday. It was good, but it wasn't AMY good." Everyone in San Diego wants to know who this "Amy-with-a-magic-touch" is. NOLA, ya'll are a bunch of lucky ducks because Amy rocks! If you want an amazing massage from a genuinely cool chick, look no further than Pura Vida, baby! And P.S., she offers discounts for artists and musicians?! (See: cool chick)

BEST MASSAGE IN NEW ORLEANS! I've been going to Tam at Well Body Studio for massages for 5 years…read morenow (Swedish, Therapeutic, and Prenatal), and I count my lucky stars every day that I found her. I cannot recommend her highly enough. I refer all my family and friends to her, and they continue to have nothing but glowing reviews. Here are some things I love about massages with Tam: 1.) Tam eases you into a massage. Instead of diving into the most painful knot or problem area first thing with full force, she reminds you to breathe and guides you toward a place of relaxation first so that your muscles are more primed to receive more focused pressure. I struggle with anxiety and cannot tell you how important it is that I feel relaxed and safe BEFORE i can enjoy or benefit from a massage. Tam knows how to do this. She is thorough, she is deliberate, and she takes her time so that you never feel that anything is being rushed. This allows you to actually relax and get the most out of the therapy. (She also gives very calm and clear guidance on what to do: when I need to roll over, or adjust my positioning, or what to do before the massage starts, or when it is over. This helps you relax further by limiting opportunities for confusion and awkwardness.) 2.) Tam is a magician with pressure. She is strong, but adapts her pressure based on the area of the body and the body's muscle response. She's always keenly attuned to me and how my body is responding, and i've never had to ask her to adjust her pressure. That said, she also verbally checks in with you to make sure that the pressure feels right and encourages you to speak up if anything needs to be changed or addressed. 3.) Tam doesn't talk through your massage. She lets you relax into your bliss and detach. That said, if you WANT to talk or have a question or concern, she is happy to engage in conversation. She lets you guide the talking piece. 4.) Tam is both confident and humble in her work. She is highly skilled, highly perceptive, does a thorough intake before the massage, and quickly makes you feel comfortable. And she ALSO listens to what you need and how your body/situation may be different. She adjusts based on your needs and is open to your thoughts. 5.) I feel SO rejuvenated after a massage with Tam. It's as if i've also been through a meditation, Reiki session, restorative yoga, deep stretch, and blissful sleep all at the same time. Don't waste your money at the fancy spas in town. Trust me, i've been to them all. Tam is the only massage therapist you'll ever need.

Thank you, Tam!! I woke up around 10am today and couldn't move my head or get up w/o excruciating…read morepain in my neck. Today is Sunday. I went on yelp to check out massage reviews and filtered it to what was open. Well Body Studio was 1 of 2 with good ratings to come up. I called both and left messages. Within 3 min, Tam called me back. The other never did. Amazingly, on a Sunday, she was able to get me in a few hours after I called and in time to get home for the Saints game. She did a great job. I needed super deep treatment and she really focused on the the 2 areas I told her were in pain. My issues aren't completely healed - I'm beyond an hour of work, but WOW... It's almost 12 hours later and I feel SO much better than I did this morning. I really didn't think I would find someone on a Sunday and I'm so lucky I did. THANK YOU!!!! I'll definitely be back. Oh yeah -1 extra bonus... great music. No cheesy spa flutes. Just some good ol jazz.
